Question ID: WS-124
Submitted by: Riccardo Illy
March 5, 2012

Why did the stream of cancer research use the symptomatic approach, i.e. to try to eradicate a cancer already developed, instead of looking for the deep causes of it so to prevent its development? On this issue there is an evident conflict of interest between the pharmaceutical industries and the public institutions.
